Agrifast has announced that Eclipse Enterprises (Australia PTY LTD) is the official distributor of its TOM-System tool for Australia. The Tom System is an electrical stapler designed to guide the plant in the greenhouses by using a world patented easy to use metal clip. The clip ties the crop easily, preserving the growth of the plant and avoiding any harm but achieving around 40% savings in labour cost.
TOM-System product manager Alberto Lizarraga said, "Australia is a very important market for us to introduce our product, and we are proud to collaborate with Eclipse Enterprises, which is a leading company in horticulture distribution in Australia”
"That is why we have chosen Eclipse Enterprises as our partner for Australia. They have been importing, wholesaling and distributing horticultural products for over 30 years and have direct relationships with the most important horticulture companies in the country."
The relationship seems to be of mutual benefit. As Eclipses' Leon Atsalis explains; “We can see the huge market potential for this product and are very pleased to be launching it in Australia.”
“The TOM-System really is a revolutionary cost saving device. One which we expect many hydroponic growers in Australia will see the value of.”
The labor costs are high in Australian greenhouses and therefore any possibility of increasing clipping speed and reducing labour costs are very welcome by growers.
